Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Track Bar P/N:540-945
Help keep the front axle located and your steering on-center with the Dorman - OE Solutions Front Suspension Track Bar (P/N 540-971). It drops in as a direct-fit replacement on many trucks, among them the 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500, 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 3500; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. The track bar anchors the front axle to the frame and controls its side-to-side movement, keeping the axle centered under the truck as the suspension cycles.
Worn track-bar bushings or a loose end can let the front axle shift, showing up as wandering or vague steering, a clunk over bumps, or uneven handling. If a failed track bar is the cause, this replaces it. Rigorously tested by Dorman's engineering and quality team for safe, sustained performance. Country of origin: China.
